The waves slide down
On the crackblack shore,
And the sea rolls on
Into emptiness.

To love is to lose,
And to lose is to die.
All our meanings dissolve
Into emptiness.

No flags now fly
In the weeping wind.
The dry earth is covered
With emptiness.

When I meet you again,
I will wear only lies
As the signs and the sighs
Of emptiness.

You believe in a creed; You believe in a war. And you kneel at the altar Of emptiness.

Hark, Hark, the dogs do bark.
Pain is coming to town.

When I meet you again,
I will wear only lies,
As the signs and the sighs
Of emptiness.
Of emptiness
